It's a Long Way (É Um Longo Caminho)

Woke up this morning
Singing an old, old Beatles song
We ain't so strong, my Lord
You know we ain't so strong

I hear my voice among the others
At the break of day
Hey, brothers
Say, brothers

It's a long, long, long, long way
It's a long way
It's a long, it's a long, long, long
It's a long way

The eyes of the green snake
Today is when I noticed
If I had noticed sooner
I wouldn't have loved who I loved

It's a long way
It's a long, it's a long way
It's a long, long, long
It's a long way

I renounce those who say
That our love is over
It's now stronger
Than when it began

It's a long road
It's a long, it's a long road
It's a long and winding road

It's a long and winding road
It's a long and winding road
It's a long and winding, long and winding road

The water plays with sand at the edge of the sea
The water flows and the sand stays in place

It's a tough, it's a tough
It's a tough, tough and long way

And if it weren't for love
And if it weren't for this pain
And if it weren't for suffering
And if it weren't for crying (ah, love)
And if it weren't for love

In Abaeté there's a dark lagoon
Surrounded by white sand
